Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli SeqA is a negative regulator of DNA replication. The SeqA protein forms a high-affinity complex with newly replicated DNA at the origin of replication and thus prevents premature re-initiation events. Beyond the origin, SeqA is found at the replication forks, where it organizes newly replicated DNA into higher ordered structures. These two functions depend on SeqA binding to multiple...
